What this means These dates come from the registry's RDAP record (source: rdap.verisign.com). "Registered" is when the current registration began — if a domain lapsed and was registered again, the clock restarts. We never show personal registrant details. See what domain age means.

What this means The Internet Archive's Wayback Machine saves copies of web pages. The first capture shows roughly when a site first appeared on the web — it can be later than registration (nothing published yet) or earlier (an older owner). See the Wayback Machine guide.

Popularity and traffic

In the Tranco list

Tranco rank: #5,542 of the top million
Traffic (rough estimate): 500,000 – 50 million visits a monthA deliberately wide band based only on the rank band (top 10,000). Not measured.

Rank from the Tranco list (list ID Y83KG, 4 Oct 2026), a research ranking by Le Pochat et al. that averages several popularity sources over 30 days.

What this means A rank shows how popular a site is compared with others — 1 is the most popular. Turning a rank into visitor numbers is guesswork, so we show a very wide band and explain the method on our methodology page.

IPv6: No IPv6 address for the domain or www
DNSSEC validation: Not validated (unsigned, or not checked)

What this means DNS records tell the internet where a domain's website and email live. SPF lists the servers allowed to send its email and DMARC tells receivers what to do with messages that fail checks — both help stop spoofing. DKIM keys live under selectors we cannot guess, so they are not shown. Read DNS records explained and SPF, DKIM and DMARC.

Hosting network

Network identified

IP address: 77.95.81.226 one of 3 addresses
Network: IFOXNETODPD-ENSONO-DCCS - Ensono LP, US
AS number: AS19229
IP block: 77.95.80.0/21
Network country: GermanyWhere the network is registered — not necessarily where the server sits.
Reverse DNS: none
CDN / platform hint: Akamai

What this means The hosting network is the autonomous system (AS) that announces the website's IP address on the internet — often a hosting company or a content delivery network (CDN). Looked up through Team Cymru's IP-to-ASN service.

Search engines

Not checked automatically

We don't check Google or Bing automatically: neither offers a free API for this, and we don't scrape search results. You can check yourself with a site: search:

Common Crawl: Found in the September 2026 IndexCommon Crawl is an open, free web archive — a rough sign of whether crawlers reach the site. Sites can block its crawler (CCBot) in robots.txt.

Check on Google Check on Bing

What this means A site: search shows a sample of the pages a search engine has indexed — the count is only an estimate. For a definite answer for your own site, use Google Search Console and Bing Webmaster Tools. See how to check Google indexing.

The name itself

Name facts

Name part: royalmail 9 characters
Whole domain: royalmail.com 13 characters
Characters: 9 letters, 0 digits, 0 hyphens
Internationalised (IDN): No — plain ASCII
Dictionary: Two dictionary words: "royal" + "mail"
Pronounceable: Yes, by our simple vowel/consonant test
Ending: .com A generic ending

What this means Short, easy-to-say names without hyphens or digits are easier to remember and type. Domain names can be up to 63 characters per label; in DNS, non-ASCII names are stored as "xn--" Punycode.

Website

Website returned status 403

Status: 403 ForbiddenMany sites show automated visitors like our lookup bot a block or "checking your browser" page — people using a normal browser may see the real site. The details below describe the page our bot was given.
Final address: https://www.royalmail.com/
HTTPS: Loads over HTTPS
HTTP → HTTPS: Plain HTTP redirects to HTTPS
Redirects (HTTPS): 301 https://royalmail.com/
403 https://www.royalmail.com/
Redirects (HTTP): 301 http://royalmail.com/
403 https://www.royalmail.com/
Response time: 121 ms to first byteMeasured once from our server in the UK, for the final page only.
Page weight (HTML): 371 bytesThe HTML document only — images, scripts and styles are not counted.
Server header: AkamaiGHost
Page title: Access Denied
Meta description: none
Language: not declared
Canonical: none
Robots directives: none (indexable by default)
Generator / CMS hints: none detected
Open Graph tags: Not present
robots.txt: Couldn't read it (status 403)
sitemap.xml: Not at /sitemap.xml

What this means We load the home page once over HTTPS and once over plain HTTP, following up to five redirects, and read only the page's headers and head tags — we don't store the page. A missing title or description is worth fixing for search results; a robots "noindex" keeps a page out of search engines.

SSL certificate

Valid certificate

Checked host: www.royalmail.com
Trusted: Yes — the chain verifies against standard root certificates
Name match: The certificate covers www.royalmail.com
Issuer: Entrust Limited · Entrust OV TLS Issuing RSA CA 2
Subject: *.royalmail.com
Valid from: 15 Sep 2026
Valid until: 2 Apr 2027 179 days left
Lifetime: 199 days
Names covered (SANs): 3
Show some
*.royalmail.com
royalmail.com
www.royalmail.com
Connection: TLSv1.3 TLS_AES_256_GCM_SHA384

What this means A TLS certificate proves the server is entitled to use the name and encrypts the connection. Certificates now last months rather than years, so automatic renewal matters. Read SSL certificates explained.

Security headers

Few headers set

0/6 recommended security headers present on the home page.

Strict-Transport-Security (HSTS): Not setTells browsers to use HTTPS only.
Content-Security-Policy: Not setLimits where scripts and other content can load from.
X-Content-Type-Options: Not setStops browsers guessing file types.
Frame protection: Not setX-Frame-Options or CSP frame-ancestors — prevents clickjacking.
Referrer-Policy: Not setControls what address is passed on when visitors click away.
Permissions-Policy: Not setTurns off browser features the site doesn't use.

What this means These response headers are defences a site can switch on in its server settings. Missing ones are common and not proof of a problem, but they are cheap to add.

royalmail.uk Registered since 2014
royalmail.net Registered since 1998
